Hi Marcel,

Thanks for the clarification and for the news about your publishing plans! I don't remember where, but I saw your Venlo manuscript listed as a source in some book, so I added it to my want list. I look forward to news about its release.

Airfield histories are interesting because they provide a perspective that complements those presented by unit histories and biographies -- each of them fills in different pieces of the puzzle that we study.

Regards,
Leon Venter

p.s. I recently got "Huzaren van de Nacht, deel 1", the first volume in Coen Cornelissen's set on III./NJG 1, mainly based at Twente. Ab Jansen's "Wespennest Leeuwarden" provides some details on IV./NJG 1 at Leeuwarden, so after your book is published, we just need someone to cover Gruppe II...
